IEC 61131 PLC: Software components for automation

The core competence of KW-Software is the consistent implementation of new technologies in a scalable software platform for the automaton.

A central component of this automation platform are our  IEC 61131 software components

  • MULTIPROG, the leading IEC 61131 programming system for control applications in the most different applications and
  • ProConOS, the open and unified IEC 61131 PLC runtime system for different automation tasks (PLC, PAC, Motion Control, CNC, robot, sensor).

   
 

The IEC 61131 standard

The IEC 61131 is the worldwide applicable standard for programmable controls. It standardizes various languages, command sets, concepts and structure models used in automation systems. The advantage of using IEC 61131 conform PLCs and programming systems is a portability of all platforms and the use of same concepts reducing costs for automation systems.

KW-Software and the IEC 61131

KW-Software is specialist in the field of integration of the IEC 61131 technology into your automation systems and solutions.
We are the worldwide leading manufacturer for IEC 61131 software components, ranging from the simple parameterization of small controls or drives to freely programmable controls for mechanical and system engineering.
  For good reasons:
  • We have the know-how and experience: KW-Software can look back on more than 30 years of experience with automation software. We have developed software according to IEC 61131 already since 1994.
  • Short time to market: Our software components are simply adapted to your hardware and not newly developed. Thus adaptation can be realized quickly and easily.
  • We fulfill the PLCopen specifications: PLCopen Motion Control, PLCopen XML, PLCopen Certified Training.
  • Outstanding results in practice: The products of KW-Software prove their quality and availability on a daily basis in thousands of applications. The range of the applications comprises almost all industries.
    The software is used for example in automobile manufacture, mining, printing machines, building automation, industrial robots, presses, process controls in steel and chemical factories, turbines, packaging machines, weighing systems and windmills.
 
   
 

IEC 61131 software components are our core competence

You build automation devices, we supply the software for them:

  • MULTIPROG the IEC 61131 programming system
    MULTIPROG is the leading IEC 61131 programming system for the most different control applications, easy to operate and fully equipped.
  • The IEC 61131 runtime systems ProConOS and ProConOS embedded CLR
    With the installation of the PLC runtime system ProConOS/ProConOS embedded CLR, a standard hardware platform as well as a specific hardware platform becomes a powerful PLC - including motion control, if required.
    ProConOS embedded CLR is the open and unified IEC 61131 PLC runtime system for different automation tasks (PLC, PAC, Motion Control, CNC, robot, sensor).
  • Machine visualizations, which are characterized by simple and intuitive operation. For most efficient work, our visualization tools for example enable a powerful object dynamization and multiple-use object instances or tremendous flexibility and portability through usage of web technology (depending on software).

The IEC 61131 MULTIPROG programming system as well as the IEC 61131 runtime systems ProConOS and ProConOS embedded CLR from KW-Software support all programming languages of the IEC 61131.

ProConOS embedded CLR also offers the option to use high-level language C#.
